IP ratings is the rating of protection given by an enclosure, against solids and liquids. In the format of IPXX, 'X' represents a number The first value of the IP rating refers to protection against solids say dust, followed by the one that refers to protection against liquids (water).
Having a value of IPX5, the 1More Aero's rating for solids indicates that no data available to specify a protection rating, and the second number of 5 means that they can withstand medium pressure jet that's 6.3mm diameter, similar to garden hose from any angle for 3 minutes at a distance of 2.5 to 3 metres.
In comparison to the 1More Aero, JBL Live Pro 2 have a rating of IPX5 meaning that
we are not yet certain of their rating with solids (dust)
and that of liquids is that,
they both have the same rating against liquids
The JBL Live Pro 2 have a weight of 9.6g . We consider a lower weight best because lighter devices are easier to move with.
True wireless devices have no cables linking any part of the device together, 1More Aero are true wireless for this case since they have no wires. This is a key distinction as some wireless earbuds have cables connecting the pair of earbuds .
JBL Live Pro 2 also is true wireless since it has no cables connecting the pair of earbuds .
1More Aero are resistant to sweat
JBL Live Pro 2's resistance to sweat makes both devices good for use during long-distance running, marathons, training in workout bodysuits, etc
1More Aero have stereo speakers, devices with stereo speakers deliver sound from independent channels on both left and right sides, creating a richer sound and a better listening experience.
Both JBL Live Pro 2 and 1More Aero have stereo speakers
Active noise cancellation uses advanced technology to reduce ambient sounds. ANC works when, it detects and analyzes the sound pattern outside and inside the earbud and after inverts the soundwaves to counter it. Simply put, it's like taking +1 (noise) and adding -1 (inverted noise) giving zero hence "diluting" the noise.
1More Aero have Active Noise Cancellation allowing you to listen at lower levels of volume, good for your ears since you don't need to crank up the earbuds volume to outcompete background noise.
JBL Live Pro 2 too have ANC which makes either of the devices ideal for flights and rush hour travels. Each work with different noise cancellation modes, pick the setting that suits your commute or that enhances your relaxation time.
1More Aero stay tightly in place, this creates an acoustic covering that tones down your environment noise well as preventing the earbuds voice audio from leaking out at the same.
Both of these devices have passive noise reduction this means that they limit ambient noise without using ANC to cancel it out.
The 1More Aero have a unit size of 10mm in diameter, the bigger the unit the more powerful, therefor producing better bass.
A driver unit is basically a mini speaker that produces sound in the device, the unit size determines the loudness of the earbuds.
JBL Live Pro 2 driver unit is 11mm in diameter,
making them have a larger driver unit than that of 1More Aero by 1mm
, as many tend to believe that driver units of a bigger size automatically produce better sound quality.
However, large drivers find it difficult to produce high frequencies so yes, larger drivers are capable of generating louder sound, but this does not indicate that they deliver better quality sound.
1More Aero's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, low-frequency response inidcates how well an audio component produces low recognizable frequencies and if it alters the signal on its way through.
JBL Live Pro 2's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, this implies that
both devices produce equal bass
The 1More Aero's highest frequency is at 20000Hz, high-frequency response tells how well an audio device produces high recognizable frequencies and if it makes any changes to the signal while at it.
JBL Live Pro 2's highest frequency is at 20000Hz, this means that
both devices generate equal treble
The sound pressure level, is the level of pressure of sound, measured in decibels, dB, JBL Live Pro 2's measurement is 93dB/mW. Devices with a higher sound pressure level are generally louder when supplied with any given audio source.
The 1More Aero's battery life is 7 hours, these last longer than 5 hours of listening which is considered average for a single charge. A device's battery life is given by the manufacturer, and with more battery hours, you get to use it for longer and have to charge the device less often.
JBL Live Pro 2's battery life is
more than that of 1More Aero by 3 hours
. Every time you recharge your device, they get a little less playing time. The effect is not noticeable at first, but over time, your wireless earbuds will have shorter listening time.
The battery life of the charging case is given by the vendor, and the 1More Aero's case has a full charge of 21 hours. A charging case with more battery hours enables you to recharge your earbuds on the go multiple times before having to recharge the case itself.
JBL Live Pro 2's charging case has a battery life of 30 hours,
more than that of 1More Aero by 9 hours
It requires 2 hours to fully charge the JBL Live Pro 2's battery. It is highly adivsable to fully charge the battery before using the earbuds for the first time.
JBL Live Pro 2's battery power is 65mAh, battery power, represents the amount of electrical energy that a battery can store.
The JBL Live Pro 2, the device supports wireless charging. To charge the earbuds, you simply place down on a compatible charging pad.
The 1More Aero have a battery level indicator, an indicator alerts you when the device has a low battery. The battery indicator lights indicate the charging state of your earbuds and charging case.
JBL Live Pro 2 too have a battery level indicator, charging indicators allow you to tell the charging state of your device, whether fully charged, or the battery is running low.
1More Aero have USB TYPE-C, a standard connector for transmitting both data and power through a single cable.
JBL Live Pro 2 too use USB TYPE-C. This USB-C plug is part and parcel of most current electronics.
The 1More Aero have Bluetooth version of 5.2, Bluetooth is a wireless technology standard that allows data movement between devices placed in close proximity, using short-wavelength, ultra-high frequency radio waves.
JBL Live Pro 2 has a Bluetooth version of 5.2,
equal to that of the 1More Aero
. Newer versions provide faster data transfers.
The 1More Aero have a 10meters distance connecting via Bluetooth.
JBL Live Pro 2 have a maximum range of 10meters,
equal to that of the 1More Aero
1More Aero support AAC, a codec that is used for Bluetooth audio. It supports 24-bit audio at 250kbps. Because it uses psychoacoustic modeling, it can provide better results than other codecs at a similar bit rate.
Being the highest quality codec that any Bluetooth-supporting Apple product supports, the 1More Aero will work well with your MacBook. If you are planning on using these with Android you need to pay even closer attention to codec support for if they only have AAC they won't provide the best audio quality possible, ensure that they also support aptX HD, LDAC, or LHDC as well.
The JBL Live Pro 2 support APTX Adaptive, an audio codec for Bluetooth devices that are developed by Qualcomm. It has a variable bit rate (between 279kbps and 420kbps).
